Three Cheese Yeast Bread – Delicious yeast bread made with Asiago, Romano and sharp cheddar cheeses and topped with a sprinkling of herbs. This yeast dough loaf is amazing for a dinner side or bread basket favorite.
We all know how much this girl loves bread. But I’ve really been missing out on some amazing bread baking this summer. Things are just not as easy with 3 kids home and finding and doing fun things together. Bread baking kind of has been on the back burner, so to speak. but I did take time to make up this amazing loaf a few weeks ago. So now it’s finally time to share it with you.
I don’t know about you, but as a bread baker with a big heart for all things dough, I go crazy walking around the local farmers markets bakery stands. I just love the smell and the beautiful array of loaves and I go home with a slew of new ideas of things to try and flavors to incorporate into my own baking.
Look at that softness! I bet I’m making you hungry by now. 🙂
I think you’ll enjoy this three cheese yeast bread for these reasons:
- Soft and fluffy
- Beautiful crumb and texture.
- Amazing good flavor. Perfect for pairing with wine and pasta or roasted veggies and steak.
What do you picture it pairing up with? I’d love to hear. Tag me #gatherforbread with your ideas.

What herbs did you put on the top and when did you add them?

Sorry for the late reply Momo! I believe it was just a sprinkling of Italian seasoning.
